If you’re after for great fishing on a spacious boat with an experienced captain, Loosen Up Charters is the place to be. Operating out of Deale, MD, these guys bring over 40 years of local experience to each trip they run. Climb aboard with your whole family or all your friends and get ready to catch some trophies!

The “Loosen Up” is a 51’ Weaver fishing boat which was built in 2020. This is an inspected vessel, meaning she can carry large parties of to 47 guests. Her wide beam and open deck allow dozens of anglers to fish at once. She also has an enclosed cabin and private head for extra comfort on longer trips.

The boat is equipped with everything you’ll need for your trip. Modern marine electronics will sound out the water and pinpoint Captain Frank Carver’s favorite spots. Once you’re in position, you will be given quality tackle and plenty of fresh live bait to tempt in even the fussiest fish.

Take your pick of how you bring in your chosen species. The boat is loaded with light and heavy tackle which can be set up for trolling, bottom fishing, drifting, jigging, popping, and much more. And with everything from Stripers to King Mackerel to Seatrout on the menu, you’ll get the chance to use all these techniques to full effect on your trip.

Capt. Frank provides tackle, bait, and licenses for everyone onboard. At the end of the trip, he will even clean and fillet your fish free of charge. So pack your food, your drinks, and the biggest cooler you can get your hands on and jump aboard for a fun day on the water!

INCREDIBLE GROUP FISHING TRIP!

VERIFIED

We recently booked Loosen Up for a company fishing trip with 14 people, and the experience was absolutely fantastic. From the moment we stepped aboard, everything was smooth, professional, and fun. Everyone had a great time, and it was hands-down one of the best team outings we've ever had. The boat was perfect for a large group—super clean, spacious, and laid out in a way that made it easy for everyone to fish comfortably and enjoy the ride. Whether you wanted to fish, kick back, or just soak in the views, there was plenty of room to do it all. Captain Frank is a total pro, and his expertise really showed. He knew exactly where the fish were, and thanks to his guidance, we landed some solid rockfish! The bite was steady, and everyone had the thrill of reeling something in. His crew was equally impressive—helpful, upbeat, and totally on top of things. The energy on board was awesome—lots of laughs, and a great balance of relaxation and excitement. Whether you were an experienced angler or a total beginner, the crew made sure you felt welcome and part of the action. If you’re planning a corporate outing, team-building trip, or group adventure, Loosen Up is the charter you want. Everything from the boat to the crew to the fishing itself was five stars all the way. Huge thanks to Captain Frank and his team for making this trip such a memorable one—we’ll definitely be back!
